JOHN RUsKIN OK Cross BEARING-
| hope YOU have all read "Ethics of
the Dust that fascinating series of
talks to Young and old on all sorts
of practical subjects. Here is one
of the choicest bits: Taking up
ones cross" means simply that you
are to 90 the road which you see to
be the straight one, carrying whatev-
er you find is given you to carry as
well and stoutly as you can, without
making faces or calling people to
come and look at you above all,
YOU are neither to load or unload
yourself, nor cut your crosses to your
own liking. Some people think it
would be better for them to have it
large and many that they could car
nv it much faster if it were small,
and even those who like it largest
are usually very particular about its
being ornamental and made of the
best ebony. But all that you have
really to do is to keep your back as
straight as you can, and not to think
about what is upon it-above all,
not to boast of what is upon it. The
real and essential meaning of ''vir-
tue is in that straightness of back.
We all of US at times get perplex-
ed as to what is our duty. But does
not this perplexity, more often than
otherwise, spring from an indispo-
sitiOn on our part to follow the sim
pie rule which Christ has given us,
s'Do as We would be done by" If
we would put ourself in the place of
our neighbor, when any question of
duty arose, would we not see clearly
how to act: Is not our confusion
OF uncertainty at such times the re-
suit chiefly of an unwillingness to be
governed by this Christian rule?

4 SET BACK FOR Cry1I SERVICE REFORM.

4 SET BACK EOR CIVIL SERVICE REFORM.
Under Collector Robertson and his prcde-
cessor the New-York Custom House was adj
mtted to be model busiDess institution.
Changes among the employees were Of rare
occurrence. The Civil Service Reform Asso-
citation highly commended the faithful manner
in which the Civil Service law was carried into
effect, and held up its administration in the
Custom House as shining example to be fol-
lowed in all public offices. But to crafty
personal spite many of the members Of this
association helped to turn out the party which
had done the good work. They preferred
Democratic promises to Republican perform
ances.
What has been the result as illustrated in
the Custom House? That great department
has been in n dernoralizcd condition since the
day Republican collector gave place to q
Democrat. The Civil Service law was brought
into such contempt that the President made q
show of improvement by removing his own
appoirtce. This having failed to mend mat
ters, q reorganization is now under way.
1t is explained that this will increase the
number Of employees. If the truth were told
it would be admitted that this is a mere scheme
TO fool the public. Why should there be any
need of reorganization? The merchants
of New-York were entirely satisfied with the
administration of the law until the Democrats
came into power.
The increase in the number of messengers
and other employees not subject to the Civil
Service examinations is one of the many
proofs Of the use of the Custom House for
partisan purposes. Last month twenty-five
Old inspectors were removed. VIII any one
believe that these men were retained for two
wears and then dismissed for other than po
ltical reasons? AT the present rate of prog
ress every old inspector will have been re-
moved long before the next Presidential cleo
ton. Laborers do not come under the Civil
Service law; hence during the last twelve
months 5000 more was expended for labor
ers than in the previous twelve months. In
the Surveyors Office alone there was an in
crease of So 900 in the contingent expenses.
All this can go on only by the approval of the
Administration at Washington. This kind of
work in the most conspicuous custom house in
the country merely illustrates what is going on
all over the Union. Well may thesc Civil
Service yeformers ask themselves what has
been gained for reform by the election Of
Grover Cleveland.

INDECISIVE DEFEATS.

The Tory Government has met with indie
cisive defeats In diplomacy and the Commons
The Egyptian Convention has fallen through
The Sultan while pleading for delay, has al
lowed the stipulated period to elapse without
attaching his signature to the treaty. Lord
Salisbury not wishing to be placed in the
attitude of standing before the circle Of grin
ming pachas hat in hand and obseQuiously
asking them how little they would be pleased
to grant in the form of concessions has alb rupt-
ly recalled Sir Henry Drummond Wolff. The
negotiations for securing the evacuation Of
Egypt are abandoned. The diplomatic mission
from which great results were expected has
proved signal failure. This Is nominally
defeat for the Tory Government; but pmcti-
cally 1t IS drawn battle which leaves them In
a stronger position before Europe and before
England than they would have occupied if the
Convention had been signed. France, Russia
and the Porte have united in blocking the with
drawal Of the garrison. England re-
mains in Egypt prepared to accept
the responsibilities Of permanent occupation
and to govern the country with a strong az
well as free hand An attempt not perhaps
wholly disingcnuous has been made to fulfil
the moral obligations incurred by Mr.. Glad
stone before Tel-el-Kcbir, and the Ministry
viii get credit for it despite the failure of
Convention which was nowhere popular in
England.
The other defeat is equally indecisiye, even
if it leads to the retirement of one Of the Cab
net Ministers. The Government was left in
a minority in the Commons on minor question
which had attracted great public interest. The
illegal arrest of a milliners apprentice in Re-
gent-st by stupid police officer, and this
subsequent folly of police magistrate, who
assumed guilt and bad character while refusing
TO take testimony in her defence. had been
gross miscarriage Of Justice. The Home Secre-
rary. instead of dismissing the police officer
and soundly reprimanding the magistrate,
publicly condoned their stupidity and brutality.
The question came up in the Commons, where
the Ministry have grown accustomed to regard
docilc majority as matter Of course. The
sympathics Of the House were aroused and
the Government were Unexpectedly defeated.
Mr.. Matthews, who was taken into the Cabinet
in consequence of his services to public moral
ity in the Dixie scandal, is now soundly be-
rated by Tory and Liberal journals alike for
his unwillingness to defend the cause Of the
milliner's virtuous apprentice. The incident
